I Heart TV!

Feeling much better today. My throat is normal again although my nose ... achoooo! And that about sums it up. So today I've been allowed minimal time online. Just enough to do my script writing and this post. Of course, I would've just snuck on to do them anyway, but it's nice to have approval.

Anyway, the script is great so far. I'm now at 12 pages, and I think I figured out a sub-plot. Overall the story is flowing well - better than I expected for a script. Some scenes I planned turned out to be shorter than I expected, but some are becoming longer, too. So it's all working itself out. =)

I can't believe I forgot to say over the last two days, but if this script doesn't work out for whatever reason, or I finish early, I've got another script idea lined up:

Few people know of my deep love for the show Charmed. I was just a kid when it first aired, but I watched the first few seasons with my mom, and have since gone and bought them all. I love most of the characters (Phoebe, Cole, Chris... *sigh*), but was rather disappointed with the series finale, as I usually am. It's not that it didn't clear everything up, or didn't give us a happy ending, because it did. But I think they still could've done so much more.

Now, I know some of the actors wanted out. Actors the show couldn't have done without. But fan came up with a solution to that: do a spin-off with Wyatt and Chris. I have no idea why this idea never got put into effect, but I'm sort-of glad. Because, without giving away too many spoilers, that's not really including all of the characters they could be, ya know?

Anyway, my back-up script is a spin-off of Charmed, set 16 years after the finale. It'll feature Wyatt and Chris, younger that people are used to seeing them, and also the other characters. That is all.

Getting off the subject of Screnzy, I've been thinking a lot about tv, and how my love of it has grown in the past few years since I've been introduced to shows like Supernatural, Smallville (last season! *cries*), Castle and Vampire Diaries. I decided to take some time to show you all the shows that I am currently interested in.

Mondays-
DWTS/Bachelor: Blegh. Mom watches, so I have to, too.
House: My poor House, dumped again. Somebody needs to get him a better team to make fun of ... preferably keeping Chase.
Haven: Awesome. I love the brothers that own the newspaper. =D
Castle: Squeeeeeee! I love Rick, and Kate, and Alexis, and ....

Tuesdays-
V: Can't wait for season 2 - such a depressing cliffhanger!
NCIS: Tony, Abby, McGee, Gibbs, Ducky. Enough said.

Wednesdays-
Criminal Minds: Prentiss in gone! Oh, how will I go on?! *sniffle* Well, at least Reid's still there.
Criminal Minds, SB: Not bad so far. Forest Whitaker is pretty good as the lead.

Thursdays-
Vampire Diaries: What's not to love about this? Maybe John Gilbert. Or the fact that Jenna is probably the only one in the whole town who has NO IDEA what's going on.
Bones: Hodgins/Angela. *sigh* Booth/Brennan - get together already!! Sheesh.
The Mentalist: Jane just needs to pack up and find a new team. If Cho wants to come along, fine. But they seriously need to leave the others behind.

Fridays-
Supernatural: I could write a whole post on the epicness of this show. Cross your fingers for a seventh season?
Smallville: I miss Chloe. Why could they just keep her and Ollie around 'til the end of the season? Still, I'm glad to have Lionel back.

Weekends:
The Adventures of Merlin: A new favorite of mine. I love Morgana. I don't care that she's evil, she's fantastic. And Merlin and Arthur and Gaius, of course. Uther and Gwen can go be killed by the dragon or something.

And now, I shall go watch my new box set of Merlin's 2nd season that Mom just bought me in an effort to keep me resting on the couch. Sidenote: bribes always work.

See you tomorrow, loves.
